Ilebaye Odiniya, the winner of the Big Brother Naija All Stars edition, has revealed she has not slept since she emerged as the show’s winner.
Speaking at the winner’s prize presentation ceremony on Tuesday, Ilebaye said she is still trying to adapt to being the All-Stars winner.
“I’m still trying to feel it (being the winner of the All-Stars season). I’m still like, ‘Ouch! Is this a dream?’ I’m still trying to adapt to every moment,” she said.
“I was super excited (when I was announced as the winner). I didn’t believe it. I was just so excited. I haven’t slept since then.”

Quest Times reports that Ilebaye has been presented with her N120 million grand prize for winning the show.
Ilebaye’s victory is a historic one, as she becomes the second person from Northern Nigeria to win the show, after Kaduna-born Katung Aduwak, who won the first season in 2006. She is also the third woman to win the Big Brother Naija prize money, after Mercy Eke (2019) and Phyna (2022).
Ilebaye has not yet revealed what main plans she has for her prize money, which has left many with suggestions on what it should be used for.
